I can't for the life of me figure this out. Am I the only one here that feels a qualitative and quantitative difference in the edge's between my 12K naniwa and 16K shapton? Not only is the 12K naniwa a smoother feel the 16K shap to CrOx on balsa is a large leap on the razors I hone through that progression. Wish I had a micro scope to see the grain pattern scratch marks.

I feel like I have entered "bizzarro" world. Four years of honing knowledge turned upside down!
